probably the most unsoclnble and Z

Probably the most unsoclable and ex-
elusive resident of Hamilton County,
Ohio, is James Rudisile, of Miami
Township. For nearly a quarter of a
century he has never been beyond the
limits of farm of 40 acres, and shows
no disposition either to visit the outside
world or to cultivate his more immediate
neighbors. He lives alone in a dilapida-
ted log hut, which clearly shows the
marks of time, with absolutely no other
company than vicious yellow dog and
dozen or more low-bred barnyard
fowls. His life has been such a solitary
one that he has become an object of
curiosity to the good people of Cleves
and North Bend, and for years the rea-
SON of his seclusion has been a subject
for speculation among them. He is
known as the Hermit of the Whitewater
Valley.

Ben. Perley Poore says that Mayor
Hewitt, of New York, once hired an
upper story in one of the caterer Worm
ley's houses, Washington. He had three
bedrooms, and would wander from one
to the other in hope of finding sleep in
the third that would not come in the
first or second. The first night he was
kept awake by dogs, the second night
by cats, and the third night by birds.
The fourth day Wormley said to him.
4'Mr. Hewitt, l have killed the dogs,
and I have hopes of getting rid of the
cats, but the birds are beyond me.

Writing from Mexico a correspondent
of the Philadelphia Record says there
are innumerable ruined cities buried deep
in the wildernesses of that country and
Central America, (which still await in
silence the coming of the explorer; there
are hundreds of deserted temples and
crumbling pyramids which were built so
far back in the twilight of time that no
traditions remain of the builders. In
Yucatan alone no less than sixty-seven
prehistoric cities have been discovered,
despite the fact that this widest territory
of Mexico presents almost insurmount-
able obstacles to the traveller in the way
of warlike sayages and trackless deserts
whose hot sands outrival Sahara. Even
the all-conquering spaniards never sue
ceeded in making much impression upon
the Mayas of Yucatan, and to this day
there are aboriginal tribes in the interior
still fourishing as before the conquest,
but so powerful and bloodthirsty are
they that no European who has Ventured
within their domain has returned 10 tell
the story"

A gentleman who has resided in the

The patient and ahealthy friend are mes

appear from any report thus far made.
Nhe difficulty in dnding a willing recip-

huld think, an insuperable obstacle. If

b transference of disease from the human
being to members of the animal kingdom

borne in mind, however, that in this

The weather continues warm and
very dry. The creek is also nearly
dry.
But still we hear the same subject
discussed. Prohibition is "the topic"
Of the day with our people.
Mrs. d. d. Capshaw has returned
to her home in Shelbyville after a
three weeks pleasant visit to her
mother.
Mr.. T. w. Carlock, Of Oakley, and
Misses Olive b. and Viola Melon
maid, Of Nettle Carrier, Overton Co.,
are visiting Mrs, Howard this week.
w. A. Mason is off on a trip this
week in the interest of the Mountain
City Wooden Mills.
We hope that all who are in SYM
pathy with the cause of prohibition
will rally around the standard on the
9th. Come one, come all and lend
your influence in this glorious cause.

Since u last writing there has
been nothing scarcely doing in the
way of farming on account of dry
weather. We are now experiencing
a second drouth. Corn in this neigh
borhood is hardly half crop, and there
can't be more than half an acreage of
wheat soWn, as there has been no
time when theland could be prepared.

one of the "brag" fishermen at Crisp.
He, Col. Peters, G. w. Durham, and

day angling in Collins River with
splendid success, bringing home
twenty odd pounds of fine fish, after
having all they could eat for dinner
on the river. | think that the trip to
Collins river will be the means of
bringing the Professor back to Mich

look foolish for him to leave the
mountains of Virginia and come to
Middle Tennessee to spend the sum-
mer, but he will never be satisfied
until he takes another fish to "COl-
Inns"

Mrs. Nicholson and Col. Peters, your

Mr.. w. r. Parish died at his home
on Monday evening, Sept. 10Th. He
had boon confined for a month with
malarial fever. He leaves a widow
and a large family of Children. There
r still several cases of sickness over
the country.
Mrs. Nancy Byars, who had lived
to an old age and had been a constant
sufferer for a number of years, was re-
leased from her suffering here on Fri
day evening, Sept. 9th. She died in
the faith, as she had for a number of
years been a faithful member of the
Baptist church, and while she is dead
and her body confined to the tomb,
she yet speaketh, "Blessed are the
dead that die in the Lord" yea say
eth the Spirit, they shall rest from
their labors and their works shall fol-
low them. She was the mother of a
large family of children who are all
grown. Some of them are in Texas,
and will in sadness listen to the story
of the death of mother.

The Wells Affair.


We published last week an article
from the Nashville Banner with re-
gard to a letter written by a U. S.
storekeeper andgauger named Wells,
to his mother, claiming that he had
been assessed by collector Hillsman
to aid the whisky protective associa-
ton in their fight against prohibition.
The letter stated that all storekeepers
and gaugers had been assessed $500,
and deputy collectors $1,000. We
publish in this issue a letter from
deputy collector Irwin, of this place,
generating Mr.. Hillman so far as
he Capt. Irwin is concerned or has
any knowledge. No one who knows
Capt. Irwin will question his state
ments, but that other officials under
Collector Hillsman were called on
for this purpose, the following inter-
view between an American reporter
and Mr.. Wells, which is too straight
forward to be doubted, will show:
Is the statement in your letter
that Mr.. Boyce, a deputy collector,
told you that Mr.. Hillsman wanted
you to send him S. for the anti-prO-
hibition cause, %correct?"
"Yes."
please give the circumstances at
tending the visit OF Mr.. Boyce and
as nearly as possible the language he
ployed?"
cit was two or three weeks ago
II Friday night when he arrived at
my boarding house near here. l
stayed then with Mr.. Bowling. The
next morning when he started to
leave he called me aside and said
Wells, Hillsman wrote me to tell
you fellows that he wanted you to
send him So that his Office had been
assessed by the State Protective AS
ISOLATION, and that he wanted the
storekeepers to send him So and the
deputy collectors would pay so to-
ward making this assessment up"
"Boyce told me to put the So in an
envelope, mark it private, and send
it to Col. Hillsman and that Col.
Hillsman would send me a personal
receipt for it."
"Have you sent the S5?"
"No; | did not. | did not know
what to do about the matter and
